  • Join to access all included materials

Here is a sweet lesson plan that will help your young learners think of themselves in a new light. They compare themselves to babies, and brainstorm all of the ways that they are different from babies. They make a list of things they can do that babies can't yet do. They get a piece of fabric to design as a baby blanket for a stuffed animal or a doll. This engaging lesson plan is based on the Arthur episode, "DW's Baby."
